Anyone want to make some guesses at what this collection is worth?

1000 BTC - 20,000
10 BTC silver - 16 BTC
10 BTC gilt  - 18 BTC
.1 BTC  - 0.7 BTC
.5 BTC - no guess
1 BTC silver - 1.7 BTC
1 BTC gilt - 2.2 BTC
St. Petersburg coin- $200

brass 1 BTC - 1.3 BTC
brass 1 BTC error 1.8 BTC
brass 0.5 BTC - 0.8 BTC
buying the entire collection in one deal - priceless

Those are my guesses

I think you're a little off there. Prices for the 0.1 silver and the brass coins have dropped significantly over the past few months. Someone recently offered a silver MS-69 0.1 for 0.4 BTC. A brass 0.5 BTC recently sold for 0.57.

20 btc for the unloaded 1000btc coin??? No way...



I think he meant 20K usd... so like 8btc? Coblee had (has?) a bunch for sale at 14btc/ea, so that's probably low

None of mine are graded and complete set does exist, sans 1000 BTC unfunded of course

Nice set!

Presume that is a S3 0.5 silver? What about the S2 0.5 silver?  Grin
No idea to be honest. 

I have not yet seen a complete coin/holo set together in one place, but I'm pretty sure one exists... somewhere... I guess  Huh

I wouldn't be too sure.  As far as I know there's only 5 people in the world currently holding 1000 BTC coins with intact holograms.

Well, there can be only one full set.

To be clear, only 1 500BTC bar exists.  Only two were made, and one was redeemed.

I tried to buy goat's redeemed 1k gold coin back in 2013 but he asked $5k for it, then later upped it to $50k as we were to close. Wonder where he is today

The good thing about ANACS grading is that it helps an inexperienced collector gauge the quality of a coin. The seller of a coin will pretty much always "think" the coin they are selling is in perfect or near perfect condition, and an ANACS grade will give the collector a somewhat neutral opinion regarding the coin.

ANACS's procedures and quality controls can probably use improvements and there seems to be some amount of grade inflation for BTC coins that ANACS grades. They are also not the most reputable grading service of the major grading services, but they will still give at least a starting point to the quality and condition of a coin.

If you put a value on ANACS grades, I urge you to send the same coin into them twice.  I think the additional handling and removal of original airtites can only be a bad thing for these coins.  That being said, I understand why someone would value a MS70 coin over a MS64.  Certainly others do care, as is obvious from the market pricing.  Wasn't trying to be controversial, just playing devil's advocate.  Since the difference between being right and wrong is the number of people that agree with you, I have no problem accepting that my opinion is "wrong" and yours is right.

Thank you for identifying my 0.5 as S3.  I've never taken the time to check.

ANACS - I didn't say anything about the grade itself.  Just that the price for the permasleeve is very nice.  As for the actual grade; well, it's relative.  There is no exact science and many people do grading.  I admit, sending in twice will get you a different number.  This should NOT happen (not that the number should drastically change, but should be noted it was a regrade/resubmit).   Just like any coin dealer on Earth (and probably elsewhere), a grade is only a matter of opinion.  So, nothing against or for ANACs in this matter.  I have the same issue with PCGS coins and paper money.

Oh, you don't have to agree with me.  We could both be 'wrong'.  Smiley

The .5 has a label that nearly covers the back of the coin.  The rare .5 S2 has a label that is smaller.  Basically the label that's on the .1 silver next to it.  Smiley

Any thoughts to getting them all graded??

No.  I put 0 value on ANACS's opinion of coins.  I actually prefer mine to be ungraded.  Will probably break open the one that is graded when I'm motivated enough.

That's also a shame.  Grading coins is cheap.   0 value?  I disagree.  I find it very valuable to be able to put graded coin slabs in a case.  It makes it easy to show people without them marking up the coin (fingerprints or scratches) or even messing with the label.  It's like the perfect protective sleeve making them easy to show and easy to stack.

Looking at the picture of the back, your .5 is an S3.  (Not an S2 - Darn)

Hell no.  If you saw the lengths I have to go through to access these coins, you would understand what true paranoia is.  I value this part of my coin collection at well over a hundred grand, and I take appropriate precautions to make sure that it's well protected.

Well duh.  Get high quality photos and display those.   Smiley

I'm not really interested in a loaded 5 or 25.  If they were made multiple years, I'd probably feel differently.  The 5 is a great coin.  Maybe someday.  Although I'm pretty happy with my collection as it currently stands.

That's a real shame.  5's have always held their premium and way more affordable than a 10.  Surprised you have 2x 10s but not a 5.
25's are nice because they are the largest graded coin you can get.  Premiums are lower than the prior 2.  So, bigger piggy bank with weight.
